Workshop on Security Incident Information Sharing (SIIS)

Friday, July 26, 2013, Berlin, Germany

Introduction

High-profile data breaches and security incidents on the Internet are gaining increasing attention from the Internet community, but also from the public and from governments. Various Cybersecurity initiatives have recently been launched, such as the EU Cybersecurity plan, which plan to improve security on the Internet. Sharing of security incident information is one of the items that shall improve awareness and ensure a quicker response.

With the increased interest in incident information sharing the workshop organizers believe it is a good time to organize a tutorial workshop to discuss the current state of the standardization and deployment efforts, to share operational experience, and to brainstorm about some upcoming activities, for example the planned work on standardizing a Security Content Automation Protocol (SACM). Ideally, participants will have gained a much better understanding of the big picture as a result of this tutorial workshop.

Workshop Style

This half-day workshop (starting at 12:00 and finishing at
18:30) aims to target the wider security community interested in learning more about the ongoing standardization and deployment efforts. You are particularly welcome if you are willing to engage in a discussion with other workshop participants.

The workshop will be structured as a series of sessions punctuated by invited speakers who will present background information to help participants reach a deeper understanding of the subject. Note that there is no possibility for remote participation.
